This is not going to be for everyone, though if you are looking around for a present to buy your magic-loving partner, this could make a really great gift! It is a blank journal to record your magical ideas, thoughts, notes etc, but it has been bound to make it look like a replica edition of Erdnase’s classic Expert at the Card Table. We think it looks great. And it is cheaper than one of those posh notebooks you can buy in the stationers! £12.50 (if you’d rather have a copy of the actual book, there’s a lovely Erdnase pocket edition available for £9.95)

And if you’re looking for some instant gratification, Duped is a neat little effect from Cameron Francis. An ideal walkaround effect with instant reset. Four cards reveal a spectator’s chosen card in a very magical way. Only £6.99 and get it straight away!

Regular readers will know that we are a great fan of Roberto Giobbi’s excellent Card College books and the ‘Lighter’ volumes. Well now, for those of you who prefer to learn via DVDs, he has started producing Card College DVDs. The first two volumes are out now for £95.95 for a 4 DVD set. (and don’t forget you can still get 15% off until Jan 4th!)

FlightCase is a nice little signed card to card case effect by the ingenious Peter Eggink. And what’s even better is that it is currently reduced to only £12.99

And if you can’t wait another minute before trying your new trick out, why not download Cameron Francis’ excellent little trick Duped. Lots of magic in a short space of time – in the hands, instant reset, no special cards – sounds like my kind of worker. Only £6.99
